| Reverse description | The reverse presents an allegorical composition in which an open book occupies the central field, with a stylized female figure emerging dynamically from the tip of a quill pen as though being written into existence. The design evokes the creative literary universe of Alice Munro, Canadian short story writer and 2013 Nobel Prize laureate in Literature. The denomination 5 DOLLARS and the issuer CANADA appear prominently, flanked by the dual date inscription MMXIV 2014 in the lower field. The imagery is rendered in fine engraved relief, combining figurative and abstract elements in a composition celebrating Munro's contribution to world literature. |
